@thepoliticalcat Interesting but unsurprising CNN is highlighting the "can't be racist, has black friends" angle and glossing over homophobia for his defense. You're right, division is their favorite tool.

@cat_static @thepoliticalcat #CNN has been garbage for as long as I can remember, but wow do they keep finding new ways to get worse.

At least they don't have #JoeScarborough.

A cannot abide #MSNBC on the morning. And I'm growing fond of #JohnBerman. He's funny in a not stupid way.

@AnonymooseGuy @skroobler @thepoliticalcat ughhh, yeah, I can't do any form of morning commentary and most definitely not Joe's arrogant blowhard variety. 😅 I've not watched Berman but it's good to hear there's some entertaining sanity there

@cat_static @AnonymooseGuy @thepoliticalcat I haven't had cable (or cable-equivalent live channels over the internet) in something like 5 years, and that's probably the reason my blood pressure hasn't stroked me out yet. 😂
